TSC to release new salary scale. The teachers service commission has confirmed that it is going to release a new salary structure for educators who are between work group B5 and D5.
In that salary structure, it will contain salaries and the allowances that educators are entitled to in each work group.
This follows after a directive that was given by president William Ruto earlier this month.
It has been confirmed that the treasury has already gave TSC sh. 9.1 billion. This money is going to be used in implementing salary increase for around 350,000 educators this month.
While announcing this increment in salaries, the president said that they increased salaries in order to cushion government employers from the tough economic times.
The president while launching the new e-citizen platform at KICC said that he already knew if the SRC proposal on salary increment. He therefore promised that all public servants will receive a pay rise this month, July.
Besides, the president hinted at removing the gap between salaries of the highest and lowest earnings of public different public servants.
Educators who are in work group B5 earn a basic salary of sh. 27,195 every month. This is therefore the lowest paid job group in the education field. Teachers in group D5 earn up to sh. 157,656 each month. This therefore shows that there is a very wide range between salaries of these teachers. In addition, school administrators’ salaries and the salary of classroom teachers differ by far.
As a result, educators across the country are eagerly waiting for this month’s salary. They want to see how much the salary increment affected their normal pay.
It is also worth remembering that the salaries for educators are not going to be deducted the 1.5% for housing levy.
